Greetings Program Leaders and Evaluators!

TL;DR: New Storytelling Learning Series; We need your DATA and are standing by to support you!

Important updates from Learning and Evaluation:

== New Learning Series! Telling Your Program Stories [1] ==

Starting next week, the new learning series will focus on the use of reporting for storytelling. If you strive to showcase your efforts to promote Wikimedia programs and projects, you can gain new skills and find resources that will help you develop this skill. We will include case studies from community members, and eventually develop a new resource on the Evaluation portal for future reference and continuous dialogue around this topic. Sign up for the first session, next Wednesday [2]!

== Round II of Voluntary Program Reporting: Deadline approaching for editing workshops and editathons! ==

If you coordinated editathons or editing workshops from September 1, 2013, to September 30, 2014, you can submit your data to the II Round of Data Collection. Deadline to fill out the survey is October 20. You can review the reporting items before you start the survey [5]. Once you are ready, find the collector here:
